Young 13 year old back on the baseball field after heart transplant
Andrew Madden, once a 13 year old star pitcher for Sherwood Muckdogs, received a heart transplant on Sept. 30 and recently returned to play for the Texas Tornadoes. Doctors and fans supported his recovery, with ties to Dr. Kristine Gulesarian and a World Series trip funded by the Texas Rangers. Ongoing costs of about 2500 dollars monthly are aided by donations to the Andrew Madden Fund at First Basin Credit Union.
